what home products can you use to clean silver/silver plate?
i bought some old silver plate picture fames at a second hand shop, that a pretty tarnised but for very cheap. i want to clean them inexpensively.
Aluminum foil method
This fast working homemade remedy works like a charm. Add to pot of boiling water a piece of aluminum foil, salt or a water softener such as Calgon. The chemical reaction among these elements quickly lifts tarnish. Works well for cutlery, trays etc.
Toothpaste
An old standby that works in a pinch. Apply with a soft toothbrush. Remove with soft clean cloth.
Storing your silver
A humid environment encourages tarnishing. Caustic elements such as sulfur and salt cause tarnishing and pitting. Using one and/or more of these techniques will help to create a barrier between your precious silver and that pesky tarnish. Oops I had put the site for jewelery but this is basically the same process...=)
